Check engine warning indicator
If a sensor malfunction or a short circuit is
detected, the “WARNING” indicator light and
the check engine warning indicator begin to
blink and the buzzer sounds intermittently.
If this occurs, reduce the engine speed,
return to shore, and have a Yamaha dealer
check the engine.
NOTE:@ Press any button on the multifunction meter
to stop the buzzer.

Fuel warning indicator
If the fuel remaining in the tank drops to
about 13 L (3.4 US gal, 2.9 Imp gal), the
lowest two fuel level segments, the fuel
warning indicator, and the “WARNING” indi-
cator light all begin to blink. The buzzer also
starts sounding intermittently.
The warning signals will be cleared when
the engine is restarted after refilling.

Oil pressure warning indicator
If the oil pressure does not rise to specifi-
cation, the “WARNING” indicator light and
the oil pressure warning indicator begin to
blink and the buzzer sounds intermittently.
At the same time, the engine speed is lim-
ited to help prevent damage.
If this occurs, reduce the engine speed,
return to shore, and then check the engine
oil level. (See page 3-7 for engine oil level
checking procedures.) If the oil level is low,
add enough engine oil to raise it to the
proper level. If the oil level is sufficient, have
a Yamaha dealer check the watercraft.
NOTE:@ Press any button on the multifunction meter
to stop the buzzer.

EJU22090
Engine overheat warning indicator
This model is equipped with an engine
overheat warning system.
If the engine starts to overheat, the
“WARNING” indicator light and the overheat
warning indicator blink, and then come on.
The buzzer also begins to sound intermit-
tently, and then it sounds continuously. After
the light and indicator start to blink and the
buzzer sounds, the engine speed is limited
to help prevent damage.
If this occurs, immediately reduce the
engine speed, return to shore, and then
check for water discharge at the port (left)
cooling water pilot outlet. If there is no dis-
charge of water, check the intake grate and
impeller for clogging.

Operating your watercraft
EJU12500
Getting to know your
watercraft
Operating your watercraft requires skills
acquired through practice over a period of
time. Take the time to learn the basic tech-
niques well before attempting more difficult
maneuvers.
Operating your new watercraft can be a
very enjoyable activity, providing you with
hours of pleasure. However, it is essential to
familiarize yourself with the operation of the
watercraft to achieve the skill level neces-
sary to enjoy riding safely. Before operating
this watercraft, read this Owner’s/Operator’s
Manual, the Riding Practice Guide, and all
warning and caution labels on the water-
craft. Pay particular attention to the safety
information on pages 1-13 to 1-20. These
materials should give you an understanding
of the watercraft and its operation.
Remember: This watercraft is designed to
carry the operator and up to 2 passengers.
Never exceed the maximum load limit or
allow more than 3 persons (or 2 persons if a
water-skier is being pulled) to ride the water-
craft at one time.
EJU10700
Learning to operate your
watercraft
Before operating the watercraft, always
perform the pre-operation checks listed on
page 3-5. The short time spent checking the
watercraft will reward you with added safety
and reliability.
Check all local laws before operating your
watercraft.
Operate defensively at safe speeds and
keep a safe distance away from people,
objects, and other watercraft. Select a wide
area to learn in, where you have good visi-
bility and light boat traffic.
Use the buddy system—operate with
someone nearby. Scan constantly for peo-
ple, objects, and other watercraft. Be alert
for conditions that limit your visibility or block
your vision of others.
Attach the engine shut-off cord (lanyard)
to your wrist and keep it free from the han-
dlebars so that the engine stops if the opera-
tor falls off.
Wear a personal flotation device (PFD).
All riders must wear an authority-approved
PFD that is suitable for personal watercraft
use. Maximum load: 240 kg (530 lb)
Load is the total weight of cargo,
operator and passengers.
